Samuel L. Nestell, 72, a resident of Fort Gratiot township 30 years, was
found dead in bed in his home Sunday morning on the Bruce Simpson farm,
State road, by Mr. Simpson.

Mr. Nestell, who was born in Wales township, June 30, 1864, was last seen
alive by Mr. Simpson Saturday night after he finished cutting hay on the
farm.

Coroner Arthur E. Smith, who investigated with Undersheriff Howard Lohr
and Deputy Sheriff Frank McKenzie, said death was due to heart disease.

He is survived by five sons, Huriel and Myron Nestell, residence unknown,
and Richard, Harvey and Gustave Nestell, all of Port Huron: three daughters,
Mrs. John Hall, Port Huron; Mrs. Clara Forester, Algonac, and Miss Marion
Nestell, residence unknown: three brothers, Dell Nestell, Wales township;
William Nestell, Florida, and Rhuen Nestell, Detroit, and four
grandchildren.

The remains are in the Arthur E. Smith funeral home, where funeral
services will be held at 1:30 p. m. Thursday. Rev. James Franklin, pastor
of Goodells Methodist Protestant church, will officiate. Burial will be in
Mt. Pleasant cemetery.

(Note: in the obituary it says Rhuen Nestell...Rhuen would have been a
nick-name as his real name was Aruna Harvey Nestell)
